Lyrics

I am the deck
 You are the sea
 I am the lights on the water
 You are moving underneath
 Underneath me
 
 I am the rail
 You are the sea
 I don't know what I'm looking at
 Don't know if it's even happening
 Underneath me
 
 It doesn't take much
 It doesn't take much to ruin a moment like this
 They curse your name
 They whisper, "Please, please, please"
 They're yelling at your waves
 "Stop crashing, just please bring her home to me"
 People can be so mean
 They call you The Drowning Machine
 ♪
 I'm the entertainment
 You are the sea
 I am the survivor
 You didn't even notice me
 Underneath
 
 I am the wreck
 You are the sea
 I yelled your name across the water
 You just hummed a factory
 Underneath me
 ♪
 It doesn't take much
 It doesn't take much to ruin a moment like this
 I call your name
 I whisper, "Please, please, please"
 Not yelling at your waves
 To stop crashing, just please, bring her home to me
 But people can be so mean
 They call you The Drowning Machine
 ♪
 The Drowning Machine
